papers’ result is the extension of an existing complexity indicating set of metrics, including a article, we extend prior results of structural and linguistic metrics, to deepen the understanding of legal texts’ complexity. Since complexity can be observed on various levels of legal systems and law texts, we restricted ourselves to the complexity of language, including structural and lexical . Finally, we use the metrics to compare the Austrian and German version of the act governing the liability

This paper is an attempt to unveil the complexity in legal texts driven by complexity and determined highly significant correlations (p <= 0.01). The papers' contribution is a
